Qualifications, Training & Studies

I am a qualified NLP Practitioner (ANLP, IBPDA and ILM accredited) and have been fully trained in Coaching and Mentoring.

I received a Distinction for my Theory and Principles of Indirect Hypnosis, Ericksonian Psychotherapy and NLP Diploma (British Hypnosis Research).

I trained in Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy through the NHS.

I have a background working in Social Care, coaching recovering addicts to attain their personal and professional goals.

Everything else I have an in-depth knowledge of, like Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, is because I have completed courses to help me personally, studied further and employ the principles in my daily life.

I have studied everything from behavioural biology to somatic experiencing, so that I can be informed and flexible enough to help you, whatever your issue.

I am a Member of the Board of Trustees at drug and alcohol charity DiversityInCare.

Why do my clients like me?

I have been there and understand where you're coming from. I know exactly what it is like to face life-limiting problems and to feel lost. I have also found my own way out of these issues and can pass on all the wonderful benefits to you. I want you to get well as much as you want to. I want you to have an amazing life too.

I am a genuine, warm, passionate and friendly person. I am professional but you will find me very down-to-earth to work with. I make the process as enjoyable as possible. I am non-judgemental, honest, and caring -- and I work extremely hard to empower you to get you the results you want.

I won't let you settle for second best - you've already done so much hard work and been through so much battling your situation, that I think you deserve to have a truly amazing life at the end of all that -- and you can when you work with me.
